Scoobynet and The Mail on Sunday
Having to take a very early flght on Sunday I enjoyed the pleasure of a free newspaper. Not a paper I have ever read before I was astonished by what burst forth from it's pages.
Bristling with ire, bursting with cant, filled with humourless and fraudulent nostalgia. Charging at the Windmills of illegal immigration and the moral minority.
I was left wondering - it was just like reading the political commentary of Scoobynet with the exception that sometimes the commentary on Scoobynet can be achingly funny!
Could Shaun be the editor, could, indeed, Scoobynet and The Mail on Sunday be in any way related?

I don't read any paper as a general rule. They are all biased to a given viewpoint and give you that journalists impression of the facts, rather than the actual facts.
However, I find the Sun and the Mail particularly hateful.
The Times is sometimes pretty good on a Sunday, though.

I think you are very lucky and should be extremely grateful

I don't have much time for the Mail on Sunday. The MOS a bit of a crap paper compared to the Daily Mail.

the mail is shockingly crap in too many ways to mention. My mum/dad used to get it every day so I had the pleasure of reading the complete bile and mindless hatred it spewed on a daily basis. The likes of ann leslie and melanie phillips should have been shot at birth.

Any idea how difficult it is to shoot a baby? They roll around lots, scream and stuff.
Boiling them is far easier.

The Express and Mail are not fit to wipe one's **** on, although I do sometimes read them for entertainment value. If I want proper news, I always pick up my copy of the Star
